Well it's official now! FFXV crossover event on the way!

We have yet to see into what type of aethetics garlean civilians are into yet since we have no access into Garlean Society until 5.0.

For all we know garlean civilians may be more into aethetics similar to our Real World with Smartphones, mangas/comics, anime shows on Holographic television and internet, and etc. Heck i will not be surprised if we run into a Manga writer in garlean society once we get there.

I mean, if we're just going to make up the lore to fit what want it to be in the future.. For all we know Garlean civilians walk around in moogle outfits and Chocobo heads. I wouldn't be surprised to see one rebelling against society and wearing a Vanu Vanu hat.

Well that would be a interesting to see since if there is Manga and anime shows in Garlean Empire, i hope to see this stuff in Garlean Empire version of Comic Con or akihabara

I'm sorry but this car just does not fit with the lore-appropriate mounts we already have.

To be fair, the Carblinkles, Namazu, Moogle, and Falcon/rocket/whatever mount are lore-appropriate, if not silly-looking. Whisper-a-Gogo or whatever it is is just an abomination and started the downward trend of immersion-breaking sellout mounts tbh.

WoW recently added a literal flying pig mount and at this point I just can't even with game developers.

Looks like we have a garuda trial grind ahead of ourselves.

Thats for the FF XV part, its what they do to get their XIV rewards. They haven't revealed what we have to do in XIV yet (and any rewards we get other than the car)

that's exactly how lore works.

i don't assume all Garlean civilians walk around like stormtroopers.

it's not like we don't already have suits and tuxedos and jeans and wedding dresses.

Car and bike can't fit okay in mmo because its look more clumsy then all what you showed here.
When S class auto and bike ride with speed of chocobo, can jump and turn without moving - it looks akward.
Okay, if no one cares about animation and etc. and want only badass look give 10m sword for pld and giant shield which would be clipping uderground.

I think you missed the point of the exchange. We have a current represented aesthetic to how Garlean technology and clothing (through some MSQ Garleans who weren't in armour, Cid's and Nero's way of dress) looks and even how loyal Garleans act. The fact that we haven't been to Garlemald doesn't mean that we have no information on how they operate, look or live and get to say "the things we've seen are in no way representative of what we may see, so i'm going to pretend they have manga and cell phones and other head-canon and then plug my ears."
